h2 Accounts and cookies
|
|
i #[img(src="/static/images/bow.png")] Behaves differently on this fork.
|
|
p CloudTube does not allow users to create accounts.
|
|
p When watching videos, subscribing to a channel, or saving settings, an ephemeral session is created and linked to a cookie.
|
|
p On future visits, the cookie will be used to look up the session, and provide a response based on that stored information.
|
|
if constants.server_setup.ratelimiting.enabled
|
|
p Additionally, your IP address is stored in memory along with the cookie to keep track of your requests to the API and apply rate-limiting.
|
|
p As described above, no personally identifiable information is linked to sessions.
|
|
p If the user never personally provides data to the site, no cookie will be stored.
|
|
h2 What the data is used for
|
|
ul
|
|
li providing the core service
|
|
li providing information for debugging
|
|
h2 How the data is shared
|
|
h3 With YouTube
|
|
p YouTube is a company owned by Google, Inc. CloudTube displays information from YouTube.
|
|
p When you perform a query on CloudTube that requires data from YouTube, such as making a search or loading a video, your query is forwarded to YouTube.
|
|
p For example, when searching, YouTube receives a query for those search terms, and when watching a video, YouTube receives a page load for that video.
|
|
p When watching a video, your browser connects to googlevideo.com directly to request the video stream. This connection, and any data stored by YouTube as a result, is subject to #[a(href="https://policies.google.com/privacy") Google's privacy policy].
|
|
p All other queries are forwarded to your selected Invidious instance, which forwards them to YouTube. YouTube does not receive any metadata about you for these queries, only the query itself.
|
|
h3 With other organisations
|
|
p CloudTube does not share any data with other people or organisations.
|
|
h2 How to delete your data
|
|
p #[a(href="/settings") Visit the settings page] and find the "delete data" section. Read the text.
|
|
p To delete your data, check "I understand the consequences", then click "permanently erase my data".
|
|
p This will erase all of your data from the server, and delete the unique cookie from your web browser.
